Embedded Systems Dictionary
Though the use of embedded processors is now a practice more than three
decades old, there’s been no previous attempt to gather all its
vocabulary in one place and clarify the meanings and usage of
individual terms. This dictionary provides the precise definitions
needed to use embedded systems terminology properly. This authoritative
work defines the meaning and usage of 2,800 of the most-used terms in
embedded systems in a way that serves technical and non-technical
audiences alike. Key terms are defined in encyclopedic detail. In each
case, the primary definition is a concise statement of that term’s
meaning tailored to the needs of less technical readers.
Engineers, technical writers, and others will find ample expansion of each definition including:
* pronunciation
* abbreviations and acronyms
* alternative terms
* cross references
* examples
* diagrams, schematics, and figures
* equations
* code listings
* tips for further reading

English Words Frequency List by Adam Kilgarriff Список из 6318 слов без перевода, расположенных в порядке «от частого к редкому». Рядом с каждым словом указана часть речи.
